Chapter 40: The Imperial Banquet of the Shangyuan Festival

(Ask for collections, ask for recommendation tickets, ask for rewards, all of them.) Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info thank you for your enthusiastic support, thank you. There was a mistake in the previous chapter, the mother's sister should be an aunt and not an aunt, which has been changed. The rain in the imperial capital is cold, and the cold is aggravated. )

……

The Yellow Gate, that is, the fathers-in-law, eunuchs, and eunuchs in the palace, cannot be collectively referred to as eunuchs. Because eunuchs are the official names of eunuchs, there are only a few, and they must not be called arbitrarily without appointment. Otherwise? If you dare to deprive others of the supreme and glorious status, he will not only kill the person you call a eunuch, but also trouble you by all means.

Gao Zhe's eyes were yellow, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with clear eyebrows and handsome eyes, wearing a cyan robe. If it weren't for years of training, which made his waist pole bend all the time, and the feeling of being low and low, who could say that he didn't look like a rich boy? What is more unbearable is that he uses spices to cover up the body odor but mixes the mixed taste, which is not fishy, fat, and unruly.

"My father-in-law is here, I don't know what you are doing?" , Gao Zhe rubbed his nose and asked the young yellow door.

Gao Zhe didn't invite Xiao Huangmen'er to sit down with him, and he didn't say anything politely, so he came up and said directly. Identity determines that he can't be too bold, and this little yellow door is obviously out of the scope. To put it bluntly, it is still a matter of face, he is on an equal footing with a small yellow family, and if it is to reach the ears of other families, I am afraid that no one wants to sit with him again, and ridiculing, belittling, and excluding him is another kind of business...... O noblemen who are always full of narrow-minded pride and prejudice.

"Meet the Son!" , Xiao Huangmen'er bowed, and said softly: "The slave maid is the eunuch Wang and his old man's side." ”

'There are not many eunuchs in Changle Palace, and there are only three who have added the title of great eunuch, and only those with the surname Wang can ...... The Son of Heaven is close to him, and the chief eunuch Wang Zhong is in charge? Gao Zhe turned his eyes and thought about it, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be the eunuch Wang, is he in good health?" ”

Wang Zhong, Gao Zhe knows a lot, the characteristics are fine, and the great thing is that he has accompanied Yang Tianzi so many suspicious people for almost 20 years, and there has been no major mistake, and the heads on the shoulders are still panting.

Xiao Huangmen'er said politely: "Greetings from Lao Shizi, the old man is safe and healthy." He paused, took a post from his sleeve, and presented it with both hands: "Shizi, please take a look." ”

Gao Zhe then opened it and took a look, and there was a "tsk" sound.

Standing up solemnly, Gao Zhe turned his back to the south and facing north, saluted in the direction of Changle Palace, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty is concerned." ”

Xiao Huangmen'er said: "The post has been delivered, and Rong Nuwen has retired." ”

"Father-in-law, stay!" , Gao Zhe smiled and shouted to stop, turned his head and called Bian Rou'er not far away, and whispered to her: "Take five hundred taels of silver tickets and give it to him." ”

Bian Rouer acted quickly, and quickly sent the silver ticket to Xiao Huangmen'er, which was very well-behaved.

"The Prince...... Shizi ...... What does this mean? The silver tickets issued by the five hundred taels of households are guaranteed to be exchanged for the same amount of real money and silver.

"It's nothing, it's cold, my father-in-law should take it and add clothes!" , Gao Zhe smiled, and the words changed: "Father-in-law is a close friend of the eunuch Wang, I must know what he is rare?" ”

Xiao Huangmen'er held the silver ticket, his hands trembled slightly, his eyes were greedy and shining, and he swallowed his saliva fiercely, extremely reluctant but a little worried. He understood what Gao Zhe meant, and he was favored by the king's great eunuch, made a good fate, and asked him to bring a gift...... There is a certain risk in this kind of thing, and what you hold in your hand is your own coffin book! It's just a number he can't refuse!

Gao Zhe said flatly: "My father-in-law probably didn't know that the eunuch Wang had hugged me." ”

Xiao Huangmen'er was dispelled by Gao Zhe's words, and the silver ticket in his hand was "whoosh" in his pocket, and he said with an exaggerated "oops", and said: "It turns out that you still have such a friendship with the eunuch Wang and his old man!" ”

Gao Zhe smiled but did not speak.

Xiao Huangmen'er thought for a while and said, "Eunuch Wang, his old man...... He loves calligraphy. ”

"That's a coincidence! It just so happens that I have a lonely post of Zhong Yuanchang, a calligrapher of the Han Dynasty! Gao Zhe personally went to the bedroom to rummage, got a box and put it on: "Greet the eunuch Wang for me, and when the Yuan Festival is over, I will personally greet him." ”

Xiao Huangmen'er held the box and said, "The slave will live up to the trust of the world!" He hesitated and said, "The prince is generous, and the slave and maid thank you." ”

Gao Zhe waved his hand, too lazy to say more.

Inform his subordinates to send Xiao Huangmen'er out of the house, Gao Zhe leaned on the brazier alone, staring at the invitation card in his hand, an invitation to the Shangyuan Festival banquet.

Shangyuan Festival, the royal feast.

Shangyuan Festival is the grandest festival in the whole world, which is held on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month every year.

The imperial banquet is easy to understand, and the emperor takes the big guys to eat and drink.

Shangyuan Festival is a big festival day, meaning family reunion, so in fact, the Yuan Festival banquet is held on the day before Shangyuan Festival, and it can't destroy the joy of the children of the ministers, right? Gao Zhe participated once three years ago, when his grandmother's mood was far less than the current madness, and led him along. For the previous two years, his grandmother had attended the meeting alone.

The Shangyuan Festival royal banquet has long been not simple, since Yang Tianzi ascended the throne, there have been more than a dozen times, which is enough to derive something that is contrary to the original intention. But there is one thing that has not changed - it represents the emperor's attitude towards his courtiers.

Jia Yi, the master of the East Palace, tried to plot against the Gao family, why didn't he dare to do it a few years ago? The old lady of the Gao family was invited to the royal banquet of the Shangyuan Festival for three consecutive years, and Yang Tianzi was favored.

Where did Gao Zhe judge that Yang Tianzi's care for the Qin State Mansion had decreased, and he couldn't expect to rely on him to grow up to adulthood with peace of mind? No one in the Qin State Mansion has been invited to the royal banquet of the Shangyuan Festival for three consecutive years, and there is less favor.

Wangchun Tower made a big move, the whole Chang'an talked about "those who are born to know", the Gao family of the Duke of Qin was remembered by the world again, and Yang Tianzi must be just as curious. Gao Zhe was ready to be summoned, but he didn't expect that Yang Tianzi would actually meet him in the form of a royal banquet on the Yuan Festival.

"Countless princes and ministers have robbed their heads for something!" , Gao Zhe patted the invitation, sighed for a long time, and soon he smiled: "Well! Here's your chance, isn't it? Gotta plan it out! Don't worry, it's more than two months before the Shangyuan Festival. ”
